Mark 15:16-19

Jesus Is Mocked

16  a And the soldiers led him away inside b the palace (that is c the governor’s headquarters), ▼
▼ Greek  the praetorium
 and they called together the whole e battalion. ▼
▼ Greek cohort; a tenth of a Roman legion, usually about 600 men
 17 And they clothed him in g a purple cloak, and twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on him. 18 And they began to salute him h “Hail, King of the Jews!” 19 And they were striking his head with a reed and i spitting on him and j kneeling down in homage to him.
